# mkinitcpio
|
|
|
|
`mkinitcpio` is a script to create an initial ramdisk environment.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### '/lib/modules/xxxxxxx' is not a valid kernel module directory
|
|
|
|
When you encounter an error like the header of this section when running
|
|
`mkinitcpio` try first to reinstall the `linux`, `linux-headers` and
|
|
`filesystem` packages.
|
|
If that does not fix it continue.
|
|
Look into the `/lib/modules` directory.
|
|
There should be a directory called `4.9.8-1-ARCH` or similar.
|
|
Now run `mkinitcpio -k 4.9.8-1-ARCH -g /boot/image.img` and move the image
|
|
to the correct location `/boot/initramfs-linux.img` in the boot directory (back
|
|
up the old one).
|
|
After that reboot and it should again work fine (Source:
